Water Margin: The opening scene involves assassinating Emperor Huizong of Song and forcibly taking L

"To ensure that the people live and work in peace and contentment,"

"His descendants will be able to continue sitting in that position."

"If he doesn't do well,"

"It has caused immense suffering to the people of the land."

"The throne is about to change hands."

"Isn't this the case every time a dynasty changes?"

"Who really thinks he's the emperor?"

"They do not treat the people of the world as human beings."

"The people of the world will rebel and overthrow him,"

"Therefore, the greatest power in this world still belongs to the people."

"The emperor is nothing more than someone who governs the country for them."

"To put it bluntly, the emperor is a public servant."

"What is a public servant? It is someone who serves the public."

"The emperor is the foremost public servant,"

"Officials are public servants below."

"If anyone forgets their identity,"

"If he goes too far, the public will give him a rude awakening."

"Let him know who he is."

"Zhao Ji now knows his mistakes,"

"But he never had the chance to be the first public servant."

"Although he is the first public servant,"

"But this spot is still very popular. Hahaha."

Ren Jinnu stared blankly at Zhao Yuan.

After a long pause, he finally spoke.

"This is the first time I've heard such a statement,"

“What King Liang said makes a lot of sense,”

"But it seems different from what I've always known."

The term "public servant" originates from Frederick II, King of Prussia.

He is historically known as Frederick the Great.

He once said, "I am the nation's first public servant."

During the reign of Frederick the Great,

I have always taken this sentence as my motto.

A series of reforms were implemented in Prussia.

This led to Prussia's dominance in the decades that followed.

To become a country that cannot be underestimated in Europe.

This laid the foundation for the later unification of Germany.

Zhao Yuan laughed and said, "Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it."

"Confucius said it, and Emperor Taizong of Tang, Li Shimin, also said it."

"Actually, many people know this,"

"They just can't bring themselves to do it,"

“They refuse to admit it and insist on calling themselves the emperor.”

"To divide all people in the world into different classes,"

“Compile a clan history,”

"They even put themselves in the first tier."

"I don't have their literary talent,"

"They can't explain the relationship between water and boat either,"

"We can only use the analogy of master and servant."

Ren Jinnu had already been won over by Zhao Yuan.

Like a kitten, she nestled in Zhao Yuan's arms and said softly,

"King Liang is the most intelligent man in the world,"

"In my eyes, neither Confucius nor Li Shimin are as good as the Prince of Liang."

Even if they said that,

"But we can't exempt agricultural taxes and corvée labor either."

"I can't think of any other ideas for this bank."

"The Great Liang is so good to the people of the world,"

"The people of the world will surely support the imperial family,"

"The Great Liang will surely be passed down forever."

Zhao Yuan laughed and said, "I don't know who's smarter."

“But my fists are definitely bigger than theirs,”

"Only force can make the truth spread."

"Of course, times have changed,"

"The powerful clans of the Tang Dynasty were far more influential than they are now."

Chapter 1708 Bad News

Ren Jinnu replied, "Even if the King of Liang were to reach the Tang Dynasty,"

"I believe that the Prince of Liang would have done even better than Li Shimin."

Zhao Yuan was stunned for a moment.

Ren Jinnu stared at him intently.

Only then did he realize that she didn't know about his time travel.

If he were really transported to the end of the Sui Dynasty...

He might not actually be able to defeat Li Shimin.

"who?"

"Du Wei and Fang Jie from Jiangnan request an audience with the King of Liang."

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Today's duty officer is Lü Fang, the Little Marquis of Wen.

He watched as two people suddenly approached the convoy from the side of the road.

A burly man and a slender young man

The boy also seems to be ill.

He started coughing when the night wind blew.

Even the young Marquis Wen, Lü Fang, dared not be careless.

Staring at the two of them,

He gestured to the guard beside him to report.

Before the carriage, where the personal guards had not yet arrived.

Zhao Yuan had already lifted the curtain.

He jumped off the carriage and strode over.

Although Du Wei and Fang Jie were still some distance from the carriage,

However, Zhao Yuan overheard Lü Fang and Du Wei's conversation.

Zhao Yuan had already recognized Fang Jie.

Before even reaching them, I couldn't help but say...

"The flowers have arrived?"

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Speaking of Fang Baihua,

Fang Jie couldn't help but tear up.

He got excited and started coughing again.

Du Wei seemed to think that it was Fang Jie who told this news.

More suitable

Therefore, he didn't speak.

When Zhao Yuan saw Fang Jie's appearance,

He strode up to Fang Jie.

Grabbing Fang Jie's arm, she asked, "Is she sick?"

Fang Jie felt as if his arm was being clamped by iron clamps.

But physical pain is nothing compared to the pain in one's heart.

He closed his eyes and said painfully,

"My aunt is dead."

"what?"

Zhao Yuan glared at Fang Jie.

The force in his hand increased even more.

Du Wei, who was standing nearby, could hear Fang Jie's bones cracking as they were being squeezed.

Or perhaps it was Zhao Yuan's knuckles cracking.

In short, Du Wei heard the sound of bones and hurriedly said...

"Fang Jie is ill,"

"King Liang, please show mercy."

Zhao Yuan turned his head and glared at Du Wei.

"Isn't Baihua sick?"

Du Wei saw the murderous look in Zhao Yuan's eyes.

He couldn't help but take a step back.

But that's all I can say.

"The Holy Maiden has passed away."

Zhao Yuan felt as if he had been struck by lightning.

His hands unconsciously loosened their grip on Fang Jie's.
